Releases: markh-de/KiVar
v0.2.1
This is version 0.2.1, adding some minor sanity checks on top of version 0.2.0, whose original release notes follow:
Version 0.2.0 has finally arrived! Many hours of implementing and many, many more hours of documenting have been packed into it.
This version brings support for custom field modification, different rule formats and finer attribute control.
Also, this is the first version that officially includes a CLI app (pip install kivar
).
Over are the times of the complicated KiVar.Rules
field name. The new keyword is simply Var
, and it can be used in various forms.
Users will need to migrate all of their legacy rules to the new field names and the new rule dialect. Yeah, I know, that's a bit of a kerfuffle, but as the rule interpretation has changed (a bit), it's really required that all rules are revised anyway. But fear not, there is a migration guide that will help users of legacy 0.1.x releases.
Release files:
- CLI app Python package (
*.tar.gz
) - KiCad PCM Package File (
*-pcm.zip
) - Classic KiCad Plugin Archive (
*-plugin.zip

Getting things sorted, naturally
This KiVar plugin release provides natural sorting for all elements presented in the UI.
With this release, I think KiVar is ready to be tested by the public. If you want to use assembly variants in KiCad, give KiVar a try.
